Interface ContextServicePlugin

public interface ContextServicePlugin
A plugin interface that allows third-party components to perform initialization tasks when a CamelContext is being configured and started.

Implementations of this interface are automatically discovered and loaded via the Java ServiceLoader mechanism. To register a plugin, create a service provider configuration file at META-INF/services/org.apache.camel.spi.ContextServicePlugin containing the fully qualified class name of your implementation.

Common use cases include:

  • Registering beans in the Camel registry
  • Adding event notifiers for monitoring
  • Configuring global interceptors
  • Setting up custom type converters

Example Usage:

 
 public class MyContextServicePlugin implements ContextServicePlugin {
     @Override
     public void load(CamelContext camelContext) {
         // Register a bean in the registry
         camelContext.getRegistry().bind("myBean", new MyBean());

         // Add an event notifier
         camelContext.getManagementStrategy().addEventNotifier(new MyEventNotifier());
     }
 }
